Storm blown course changes and forced climbs in attempts to avoid thunderstorms depleted the narrow margin of safety in the fuel supply of the Southern Gross on its magnificent trans pacific flight. This was the one point in the flight when the great land plane sent no word messages. Just the steady buzz of a tied down radio key told the world they were still in the air. This audible silence was broken by, "We're going to make it," followed by, "we didn't send because we didn't want to worry anybody."
